Hi, I’m Billy Corcoran V!
Why Choose Me to Tell Your Story?
I believe your brand is more than just a business—it’s a story waiting to be told, one that deserves to be captured with authenticity and heart. With over 20 years of experience as an educator focused on storytelling, I’ve spent my career helping others express their narratives in a way that reflects their true identity. That same passion drives my approach to brand filmmaking today.
When I’m behind the camera, it’s not just about capturing visuals; it’s about weaving together the emotions, values, and details that make your brand unique. I bring a personalized touch to every project, taking the time to understand your vision, your mission, and what makes your brand stand out. Whether you're launching a new product or sharing your company’s journey, I’ll ensure that your story is told with creativity and care, allowing you to connect with your audience in a meaningful way.
Choosing the right filmmaker is a big decision, and my goal is to make the process seamless and impactful. I’m here to listen, collaborate, and create content that resonates long after the project is complete.
Let’s craft a film that tells your brand’s story the way it deserves to be told. Reach out today, and let’s start building the perfect way to capture your brand’s journey.
Helping you feel natural on camera.
At Fifth Films, one of my top priorities is creating a comfortable, collaborative atmosphere for your team or brand. Whether we're filming on-site at your business or capturing a product launch, I focus on ensuring that everyone feels confident and at ease. When people feel comfortable in front of the camera, the content we create together feels authentic and impactful.
I know that being filmed can be intimidating, especially when the success of your brand is at stake. That’s why I work closely with each client to ensure a supportive, relaxed environment from start to finish. Whether I’m offering direction or simply providing a calm presence, I make sure that the process is smooth and enjoyable—from the initial planning phase to the final delivery of your project.
This approach comes from years of experience, both behind the camera and in my background as an educator, where I honed the ability to connect with people and help them communicate their best ideas. It’s not just about producing high-quality films—it's about ensuring that your brand’s true identity shines through every frame.
Your project should reflect the essence of your brand, and my job is to capture that in the most genuine, stress-free way possible. Let’s work together to create something that truly represents who you are.
FAMILY FIRST: behind my lens
Family is at the heart of everything I do. My wife, Angela, is a dedicated 1st grade teacher, and together we’re raising two incredible kids—our son Liam and daughter Mila. They inspire me daily and remind me of the importance of capturing moments that matter.
When I’m not behind the camera, you might catch me on the golf course (Torrey Pines is one of my favorites!) or focusing on staying sharp both mentally and physically. I’m passionate about living a healthy lifestyle—eating clean and working out regularly keep my mind clear and my body ready to handle the demands of a full wedding day. Trust me, carrying a gimbal all day requires more endurance than you might think! It’s all part of being prepared to capture the best moments from every angle.
And here’s my secret superpower: my ADHD. It’s what allows me to seamlessly manage multiple camera setups and multitask on the go, ensuring every important shot is captured with precision and creativity.

BILLY’S BELIEFS
Authenticity
Bringing out the real story behind your brand. At Fifth Films, I believe every brand has its own unique identity, and it’s my job to capture that authenticity. I go beyond surface-level visuals to showcase the true essence of your brand—whether it’s through a product launch, corporate event, or brand story, the content reflects who you are at your core.
Collaboration
Creating content through teamwork. I see every project as a collaborative journey. From the initial consultation to the final delivery, I work closely with your team to ensure that the vision is shared, feedback is heard, and the final product aligns perfectly with your brand’s message. We’re not just creating a film; we’re creating a partnership.
Turning your message into a compelling narrative. With my background in education and storytelling, I focus on crafting films that do more than just showcase your products or services—they tell your brand’s story. I carefully weave together visuals, dialogue, and emotion to engage your audience and leave a lasting impact.
Storytelling
Understanding your needs and your audience. Empathy is at the heart of my filmmaking process. I take the time to understand your brand, your goals, and your audience to create films that resonate on a deeper level. This personalized approach ensures that every project feels meaningful and reflective of your brand’s values.
Creativity
Empathy
Innovative ideas that stand out in a crowded market. Creativity is essential in producing content that stands out. I pride myself on bringing fresh ideas and perspectives to every project. Whether it’s a bold new approach to product videos or a unique brand story, I strive to push the creative boundaries to make sure your content gets noticed.
Let’s Tell Your Story TOGETHER.
I believe every brand deserves more than just a film or photo—they deserve an experience that’s tailored, impactful, and deeply aligned with their mission. That’s why I take on a limited number of commercial projects each year, ensuring each one is crafted with care, creativity, and purpose.
I work with businesses and organizations that value more than just beautiful visuals—they understand the power of authentic storytelling and the connections it creates with their audience. If you're looking for a filmmaker who’s as invested in your brand as you are, let’s connect.
